Conter is a site of Scottish anti-capitalist thought. It aims to develop a radical, anti-capitalist class politics in Scotland fit to intervene into the crisis of the British state, the global order and Scottish society.
It seeks to be an internationalist organ, but one rooted in a distinct national context. To explore the historical and contemporary dynamics of Scottish society as produced by class conflict understood as a constant, irrepressible process expressed in diverse forms. We aim to promote the intellectual life of Scottish socialism insofar as this enhances political action.
Conter will run a regular blog, with shorter pieces of critical commentary on events in Scottish life and global affairs. It will also produce special editions with longer theoretical pieces and reviews, examining economics, politics, social movements and ideological trends.
The hope is to produce a body of work that is both highly critical and entirely partisan in the interests of the working class and social progress.
